Abstract
An N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed chemoselective activation reaction of 1-cyclopropylcarbaldehydes and α-alkynyl enals is reported. NHC selectively catalyzes 1-cyclopropylaldehydes, followed by a [2 + 4] cycloaddition reaction with α-alkynyl enals. The target dihydropyranone derivatives bearing different substituents and substitution patterns can be obtained in good to excellent yields with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities under mild conditions.

An operationally simple and efficient method for the cyclization of tertiary amines and hypervalent iodine reagents enabled by an EDA complex has been developed. A series of [1,2-α]indoles derivatives were obtained in good yields, including some key intermediates for the synthesis of biologically active molecules. In addition, this established strategy features a broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance.

Abstract
A metal-free polychloromethyl radical-initiated cyclization of unactivated alkenes was developed using CH2Cl2 and CHCl3 as the di- and trichloromethyl radical sources. Variously substituted N-allyl-indoles were successfully transformed into the corresponding C2-(di- and trichloromethyl) pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles in moderate to good yields. This reaction has a broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. Dibromomethylated products can also be obtained using CH2Br2 under standard conditions.

Abstract
An efficient and novel route for assembling pyrrolo/piperido[1,2-a]indoles is portrayed involving a radical-mediated reductive epoxide opening reaction of N-tethered epoxy-indoles that trigger facile intramolecular cyclization followed by an oxidative quenching step. Capitalizing on the operational simplicity of the method involving just two steps and use of an efficient C-C bond-forming reaction, this radical-based protocol enables the modular assembly of an important class of N-fused indole derivatives with versatile functional and structural diversity.

In this study, the first example of the carbene-catalyzed tandem dearomatization/rearomatization reaction of azonaphthalenes with α-chloroaldehydes is described. This protocol enables the efficient assembly of chiral dihydrocinnolinone derivatives in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). Moreover, this strategy enables not only the highly enantioselective NHC-catalyzed nucleophilic aromatic substitution, but also a formal Csp2–Csp3 bond formation.

Abstract
The efficient asymmetric synthesis of highly substituted succinimides from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and α-ketoamides via NHC-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition has been developed. The new scalable protocol significantly expands the utility of NHC catalysis for the synthesis of heterocycles and provides easy access to assemble a wide range of succinimides from simple starting materials.

Abstract
The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed Claisen rearrangement of hybrid Ireland-Coates structures has been achieved, allowing the stereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized β-lactones. The reaction proceeds with high diastereoselectivity (>20:1) and affords a diverse range of β-lactone fused cyclopentanes. Mechanistic studies are detailed.

Abstract
The NHC-catalyzed reactions of ortho electron-deficient vinyl substituted arylaldehydes with nitrosoarenes were studied. The reactions produced multifunctional 2,3-benzoxazin-4-ones in good to excellent yields via a cascade aza-benzoin reaction between aldehyde and nitroso groups followed by an intramolecular oxo-Michael addition. The resulting 1-acetate substituted 2,3-benzoxazinones were transformed into a new type of β-hydroxycarboxylate derivatives or 3-oxo-1-isobenzofuranacetates, respectively, under different reductive conditions. This work not only provides a simple and efficient method for the construction of multifunctional 2,3-benzoxazin-4-ones of potential pharmacological interest, but also expands the application of NHC-catalyzed cascade reactions in the formation of carbon-heteroatom and heteroatom-heteroatom bonds.
